Andrew T. Parker

Andrew T. Parker serves as Professor of Mathematics and Chair of the Mathematics Department within Principia College's Center for Business and Computer Science, teaching courses spanning college algebra through advanced topics including numerical analysis, statistics, topology, abstract algebra, and special seminars on cryptography, fractals, and chaos.

His academic credentials include:

• PhD in Mathematics, University of New Hampshire
• MS in Mathematics, University of New Hampshire
• BS in Mathematics, Principia College

Dr. Parker's research centers on mathematical frameworks for machine learning and artificial intelligence through collaboration with Computer Science faculty, extending to numerical methods, statistical modeling, topological structures, and nonlinear dynamics. This work directly informs curriculum development for integrating computational techniques into mathematics education.

He received Principia College Teacher of the Year in 2024 and has delivered invited addresses at regional mathematics conferences. His prior role at the National Security Agency involved organizing technical conferences for U.S. Intelligence Community agencies including NSA, CIA, and FBI.

Dr. Parker actively sponsors student research presentations at regional conferences and applies defense-sector mathematical problem-solving experience from his NSA tenure to academic contexts, though specific grant details or lab structures are not documented.
